Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heathenism Under the Searchlight: The Call of the Far East Many students have recently formulated various opinions as to the main motives of the new Chinese policy. Probably the only legitimate conclusion is that, as all human motives are mixed, so it is in this case. Fear of foreign aggression and of piratical partition by the Great Powers which have been carving up continents for appropriation and annexation is surely a potent factor. But the Providence of God had anticipated the ways of the leaders of the nations, by raising up pioneers of a new moral and spiritual polity, long in advance of the move ments of carnal and secular competitors for influence over the venerable nationality. The twentieth century began with the tremendous awakening of new political forces in China and Japan; but the nineteenth century had commenced with the vast uprising of the system of modern missions which inaugurated a new Pentecost. China is starting to its feet to stand up for its inde pendence; but the Bible translated into its own tongue is the first object that it grasps with its newly nerved hands. China for Christ! Is the cry of China's own native Christian Church, born under the blessed auspices of nineteenth-century missionary enterprise, and baptized at the close of that century in the blood of Chinese Christian martyrs. Those who have studied the history of nations well understand that when any community has had its religious Reformation before its political Revolution, the nation has been saved. If the Revolution comes first, with fire and blood, the Reformation is likely to fail. Britain accepted the Reformation, and so it passed safely through revolutionary throes afterwards. France fatally reversed the order. Now the most crucial problems of welt-politik have their focus in the Far East. Is China to be civilised before it is Christianised? The great Churches of the West have decided that this must not be permitted. A Far Eastern national Renaissance without the grace of God is an appalling contingency. The object of this booklet is to prove the truth of this proposition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Encountering Modernity written by Albert L. Park and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Catholicism and Protestantism in China, Japan, and Korea has been told in great detail. The existing literature is especially rich in documenting church and missionary activities as well as how varied regions and cultures have translated Christian ideas and practices. Less evident, however, are studies that contextualize Christianity within the larger economic, political, social, and cultural developments in each of the three countries and its diasporas. The contributors to Encountering Modernity address such concerns and collectively provide insights into Christianity’s role in the development of East Asia and as it took shape among East Asians in the United States. The work brings together studies of Christianity in China, Taiwan, Korea, and Japan and its diasporas to expand the field through new angles of vision and interpretation. Its mode of analysis not only results in a deeper understanding of Christianity, but also produces more informed and nuanced histories of East Asian countries that take seriously the structures and sensibilities of religion—broadly understood and within a national and transnational context. It critically investigates how Protestant Christianity was negotiated and interpreted by individuals in Korea, China (with a brief look at Taiwan), and Japan starting in the nineteenth century as all three countries became incorporated into the global economy and the international nation-state system anchored by the West. People in East Asia from various walks of life studied and, in some cases, embraced principles of Christianity as a way to frame and make meaningful the economic, political, and social changes they experienced because of modernity. Encountering Modernity makes a significant contribution by moving beyond issues of missiology and church history to ask how Christianity represented an encounter with modernity that set into motion tremendous changes throughout East Asia and in transnational diasporic communities in the United States.
